Do Alabama prisons offer cable television?
No. With the exception of some on death row, inmates do not have televisions in their cells. However, televisions are available in dayrooms, where inmates may view one set. Seating is typically bench style with only basic networks, sports and educational channels permitted for view. Televisions are donated by faith-based groups or purchased through Institutional Contingency funds. ICF Funds are generated through the sale of items on the inmate canteen (in-prison stores where snack foods, toiletries and approved prison items are sold).
